Jacob Danglow

[1][2] Danglow born on November 28, 1880, in London Borough of Wandsworth, the second of nine children of Michael Danglowitz, a glazier from Cracow, Galicia, and his wife, Jessie (née Loafer).

In 1893, Danglow entered Jews' College in London, where he completed his secondary education and received training to serve as a minister in an English-speaking synagogue.

In 1927, the growing St Kilda Hebrew Congregation dedicated a new synagogue building, which features large bronze doors named in Danglow's honor.

He traveled to New Guinea and the Pacific Islands and, at the request of Army Headquarters, was part of a group investigating the morale of occupation troops in Japan.

Danglow resisted most attempts to bring radical change to his community, striving instead to maintain a moderate path of Jewish Orthodoxy.
